I jumped over my halfway mark this morning. I'm so excited. I hope the second half of this weight-loss journey is as thrilling as this first half. I love my band!
I also just realized that for the first time ever, I weigh what my drivers' license says I do. This morning I weighed 230 and that's what the DL says. So cool. Not for long, though, pretty soon it will say more than I weigh. That will be a first as well.

Congratz Melissa! It's so good to see the progress the double V's are doing. I hope the second half goes as smoothly (and as quickly) as the first!

I will put up pictures soon. Saturday is my 5 month mark from starting my pre-op diet, so that's the day I will be taking my official progress pictures. I'll post them once I've got em.
Congratulations. It's quite an accomplishment. I am right behind you!

In 15 minutes it will be my 36th birthday. I'm so blessed to finally not dread the fact that I've gotten older. This has been such an important year for me as far as taking charge of my future. I have such hope that things will continue getting better and better. This morning I hit 75 pounds lost. I feel so blessed!
Happy birthday Shiny!!!! Hope you have a wonderful day and even more wonderful year. And it sounds like you have the right attitude to make it happen. Congrats on 75 pounds too. Good day for you.
